From what I have seen of Josiah Turner he is a pure point guard. Has decent size at 6'3" and has good athleticism and speed. Possesses nice vision and ability to find teammates. Shows an ability to penetrate inside and attack the basket and also finishes well at the rim. Defensively he seems a very capable defender. As McMenamin
said in his tweet he has NBA talent. Now the question marks on him are he is not a very good outside shooter and he may have personal issues or problems highlighted by his Arizona stint where he was suspended and convicted of
DUI. I think he has the tools to play in the NBA but he needs to mature mentally and show FO's he has put these previous issues behind him. Also making further improvements to his shooting will better his chances. I think if we had got that Grizzlies pick towards the end of the draft he may have been worth a punt on with nothing to lose. With only the 48th pick I think we may be able to pick up a better option going on alot of the mock drafts I've seen so far.

Honestly, don't expect the Lakers to use this draft pick on someone that will be added to the roster. They will either draft internationally and store him there for a couple of seasons, or just trade the pick away.

Only way I see the Lakers drafting someone is if they move up into the first round / early second round.
